Evaluation of Thriving, Substance Use, Mental Health, and Repeat Injury Among Participants in the THRIVE Program

June 6, 2024 updated by: Unity Health Toronto

Evaluation of Thriving, Substance Use, Mental Health and Repeat Injury Among Participants in the THRIVE Program

The goal of this observational study is to determine the impact of a hospital-based violence intervention program on a person's capacity to thrive and recurrent intentional injury. The aims of this study are:

  1. To evaluate the impact of the HVIP on building personal capacity of youth who have experienced non-fatal violent injuries to thrive using:

    • Established measure changes in positive psychology and clinical metrics
    • A qualitative interview using thematic content analysis
  2. Plot the methodology proposed to measure the impact of THRIVE on subsequent injuries using administrative data sources

Participants will complete surveys, participate in a semi-structured interview, and have their rate of recurrent intentional injury tracked over time.

Researchers will compare the rates of intentional reinjury between participants in the THRIVE program and those who present at other hospitals with similar injuries to see if there is a difference in the rate of recurrent intentional injury a 1, 5, and 10 years.

Contacts and Locations

This section provides the contact details for those conducting the study, and information on where this study is being conducted.

Study Contact

Study Contact

The name and contact information for the person who can answer enrollment questions for a clinical study. Each location where the study is being conducted may also have a specific contact, who may be better able to answer those questions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Child
  • Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Youth injured by interpersonal violence who present at the emergency department of Unity Health Toronto - St. Michael's Hospital will be offered the hospital-based violence intervention program called THRIVE. THRIVE case managers connect with youth and provide supports in-hospital and in the community following discharge, providing wrap-around care with a strengths-based approach.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • ages 14-29
  • presentation with an injury due to violence (defined as a gun shot wound, stab wound, blunt or bodily force, inflicted by someone else)
  • participant in the THRIVE Program

Exclusion Criteria:

  • unable to consent due to language barrier or brain injury
  • sexual assault
  • child abuse
  • self-inflicted injury
  • residence >1 hour from Toronto city limits

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
To evaluate the impact of the HVIP on building personal capacity of youth who have experienced non-fatal violent injuries to thrive.
Time Frame: July 2024 - December 2025
To evaluate changes in thriving, substance use, and mental health, validated measures and qualitative measures will be used. Quantitative measures collected using validated instruments will provide objective measures of change over time; while context-specific and nuanced growth will be captured through a semi-structured interview.
July 2024 - December 2025
To pilot the methodology proposed to measure the impact of THRIVE on subsequent injuries within 1 year using administrative data sources
Time Frame: March - Sept 2026
After 1.5 years of enrolment in THRIVE, study participants will be deterministically linked. Linkage will provide a wealth of baseline characteristics (demographics, income/marginalization), injury characteristics (ICD-10 coding patterns which can be contrasted to THRIVE documentation), as well as the capacity to follow these linked patients administratively over time and identify subsequent ED presentations and admission across any hospital in Ontario.
March - Sept 2026

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Estimated)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
July 1, 2024

Primary Completion (Estimated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.

Study Completion (Estimated)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
